Monster galactic outflow powered by exploding stars
Briefly

Galaxy NGC 4383 has an outflow of gas 20,000 light-years across, heavier than 50 million Suns; reveals insights on star formation cycles.
MAUVE program studies how galaxies' outflows in the Virgo cluster impact star formation; astronomers focus on NGC 4383's enormous outflow to understand its star potential.
Stellar feedback processes drive massive outflows like in NGC 4383, releasing heavy elements into space that affect star formation across galaxies.
Understanding the physics of stellar feedback-driven outflows like NGC 4383's is crucial for comprehending galaxy evolution, as published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society.
